From Elizabeth Schiralli, Wellsville, New York, US
I have just read your review of Clamor, a book about noise issues. It mentions the problem with medics not hearing the beeps from hospital machines after a while. I have a daughter with type 1 diabetes. She doesn’t hear the beeping related to blood glucose sensors coming from her phone anymore. After spending a few days vacationing with her, I didn’t, either(23 August, p 27). That’s pretty scary!
